Huston made the film as a sort of loose parody of the 1941 film The Maltese Falcon, which Huston directed and in which Bogart and Lorre appeared. Capote said, “John [Huston] and I decided to kid the story, to treat it as a parody. Instead of another Maltese Falcon, we turned it into a… [spoof] on this type of film.” On their way to Africa are a group of rogues who hope to get rich there, and a seemingly innocent British couple. They meet and things happen…
